Speaking

Book Sophie to speak at your event

Sophie has lectured at colleges and universities including Harvard, Stanford, Northeastern, The Food Business School, and UC Berkeley; at companies including Google and IDEO; and at cultural hubs including Town Hall Seattle, Oliveto Commons in Oakland, and Litquake in San Francisco.

How American values—a strong work ethic and penchant for productivity; fierce independence and emphasis on personal freedom; and unwavering faith in science, technology, and innovation—shape eating habits

Health and social behavior: how social norms affect food choices and other lifestyle behaviors that support or undermine well-being

How the role of food in daily life (consumption) relates to the problems associated with our current food system (production)

The loss of food literacy—from culinary skills and confidence in the kitchen to knowledge about seasonality and where food comes from—particularly among millennials and Generation Z. (All while, ironically, they express greater interest in food and “foodie” experiences than ever before.)

Food trends: the separation of fads from long-term shifts in the food landscape, and how those distinctions will shape the future of food
